Abstract

A manganese(IV) complex (MnMeTACN) containing 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7- triazacyclononane (MeTACN), in the presence of polyamines, significantly accelerated the oxidation of ethyl linoleate (EL) emulsions, and appeared to be a potential environmentally-friendly alternative for Co-based driers that are currently widely used for alkyd emulsion coatings. The polyamines greatly enhanced the catalytic activity of MnMeTACN in decomposing the formed hydroperoxides during the oxidation of EL.
